The correct answer is \frac{7}{32}.

Given: Rational numbers \frac{3}{8} and \frac{7}{12}.

To Find: Additive inverse of these numbers are to be multiplied.

Solution:

Additive inverse is a number which is added to any numbers and the sum should be zero.

So additive inverse of number \frac{3}{8}  = x

x + \frac{3}{8} =0

x = \frac{-3}{8}

So additive inverse of number \frac{7}{12}  = y

y + \frac{7}{12} =0

y = \frac{-7}{12}

Now multiply x and y.

= \frac{-3}{8}*\frac{-7}{12}

= \frac{7}{32}

Hence, the answer is \frac{7}{32}.
